English speaking folks only-sorry

Message non lu par Invité »

Ai trouvé accidentellement ce poème...
ai commencé à le traduire but to no avail... il perd toute sa consistance dans la langue de Molière (sans parler des rimes...)

Je vous le livre en l'état en m'excusant auprès de ceux pour qui l'anglais... c'est du latin...

63 years ago today....


63 years ago today, upon the high waters' wings they came,

63 years ago today, searching for the unknown the paths to pave,

63 years ago today, shrouds of mist scorched by heaven's flame,

63 years ago today, invisible hands split open the beckoning waves.

63 years ago today, from within themselves they rose, facing their fears,
63 years ago today, soaked screams stilled by silent prayers of despair,
63 years ago today, vague silhouettes of men, surrendering silver tears,
63 years ago today, washed away the horrors carried on that morning air.


63 years ago today, thousand brave hearts, seamlessly melted into one,
63 years ago today, condemned childhood hid deep within the crimson sand,

63 years ago today, tousled signs of hope lay heavy like ancient stone,

63 years ago today, sculptured from deep inside by freedom's hand.

63 years ago today, sighs of desperation became victory's battlecry,

63 years ago today, sentiments of determination grew with each life that fell,

63 years ago today, weary eyes relating tales that lips learned to deny,
63 years ago today, tender tears sealed the remembrance of images they tell.
63 years ago today, memories loom up in their heartrending gaze.

63 years ago today, remembering those left behind, sets the heart ablaze. 63 years ago today, forever seduced, falling into the beach's embrace,

63 years ago today, upon their memory, a rose I shall humbly place.



Thank you for all your sacrifices......
